December 9: Christmas Message 1965/We Can Work It Out

The 1965 Beatles message is one of the best, being just the right side of incomprehensible, and having nearly some actual music on it. If you like the Goons you will enjoy it (I don’t like the Goons, but I enjoyed it anyway).

But if you just want to cut right to the actual tunes, we can skip forward to 1965’s Christmas number one, which was a double A-side of Day Tripper and We Can Work It Out, the latter of which is one of my favourites to sing along to at any time of day, but especially late at night. See you tomorrow for another festive double-bill, which I think you’ll be especially excited about.
